Looking for REALLY Cheap laptop?

[irsmart]

I want to find really cheap laptop (sub $60) that I can use for typing. It can have an old OS on it (OS 10.1-ish or Win95-ish). Is there anywhere I can find one?

(I'm not asking for an offer here, I'm just asking where I should look, because stores obviously don't have them).

Thanks

Ebay Craigslist those places.

Ebay would be a good place to look. I see a ton on there.

A lot of them on Ebay are loaded with XP though, so if you have a copy of 95 or 98 laying around, I sugguest wiping the HDD and installing that.

Thanks for your replies.

Is a Winbook XL2 very good? (I've never heard of the brand)

Thanks

laptops not hard to fix? ...

Once you get them open they are not hard to fix but when buying them on ebay the ones that don't work are usually diagnosed by a amateur so more than likely there will be more wrong with it then what they say.
